How should you handle an intersection with no traffic signals?

To handle an intersection with no traffic signals, treating it as a four-way stop is the appropriate course of action. In this scenario, all vehicles approaching the intersection are required to come to a complete stop. The basic right-of-way rules dictate that the first vehicle to arrive at the intersection has the right of way, and if multiple vehicles arrive simultaneously, the vehicle on the right has the right of way. This approach ensures that all drivers are aware of their responsibilities, promoting safety and reducing the likelihood of accidents in an otherwise unregulated situation.

Following this guideline allows for a smoother flow of traffic, as it provides clear expectations for all drivers. It instills a sense of order and fairness, which is especially important in intersections that might otherwise be chaotic without signals.
